REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 62/139,136, filed Mar. 27, 2015, which is hereby specifically incorporated by reference in its entirety.

TECHNICAL FIELD

This disclosure relates to health accessories. More specifically, this disclosure relates to health accessories for people that wish to hold, wear, or position certain items near certain areas of a body.

BACKGROUND

This disclosure pertains to health accessories such as accessories related to health or yoga or chakra. “Chakra” is the Sanskrit word meaning “wheel” and is believed by some people to be a location of spinning energy or channels that energy, qi, or prana flow within and about a user's body, based on Tibetan Buddhism, Indian religions, and Hindu yogic beliefs. Some people believe that there are numerous chakras at various locations in and around a body. Health accessories may include: yoga or meditation accessories, such as a yoga mat; wearable accessories, such as shirts, robes, hats, socks, and caps; and orthopedic accessories, such as standing mats, back braces, massage face pillows/cradle and covers, orthopedic pillow and covers, or heating pad and covers. Some users of health accessories may wish to hold or position personal items near certain areas of the body, such as chakras. For example, during meditation on a yoga mat, a participant may wish to hold or position certain personal items such as colors, metals, crystals, essential oils, herbs, and various other personal items near certain specific areas of a body for various reasons.

Some believe that certain personal items, known as “chakra items” or “chakra materials,” affect the participant's body in a variety of ways, such as enhancing focus, releasing an energy “blockage,” calming, resting, cooling, or clearing the mind of the user. For example, some users may believe that certain metals or crystals vibrate at certain frequencies that affect certain chakras of the person's etheric or physical body in beneficial ways or that certain oils or herbs might interact with certain chakras of the person's etheric or physical body. For instance, certain materials may “open” a chakra to allow energy to flow. Others might simply wish to place personal mementos such as jewelry and or music players or photos or pleasant-smelling materials such as herbs and oils near their body or within sight or smelling or hearing distance during use of the health accessory. In addition, a user's awareness of the presence of chakra items or other personal items near the user's body may provide a benefit in and of itself because the user's belief in the benefits of these items may cause the benefit to manifest.

The pocket 412 may be constructed from a material forming a loose pocket, such as cotton, woven materials, various plastics, and other suitable material for forming a pocket. In various other aspects, the pocket 412 may be constructed from a material forming a stretchable pocket, such as elastic, that may hold the personal items 434 tightly against the mat 400.

In various aspects, the pocket 412 may be permanently attached, such as through sewing, adhesives, and various other attachment mechanisms, to the mat 400 along all ends 416,418,420,422. In various aspects, the front panel 424 may be attached to the back panel 428 along all ends 416,418,420,422 while the pocket itself 412 may be removably attached to the mat 400 as described below. When all ends 416,418,420,422 are attached, the pocket opening 432 is not defined and the personal items 434 are permanently enclosed within the pocket 412. In various other aspects, the personal items 434 may be permanently enclosed within the pocket 412 but the entire pocket 412 is removably attached to the mat 400 through attachment mechanisms such as hook and loop connections, clasps, buttons, snaps, and various other attachment mechanisms for the pocket 412.

In various other aspects, the pocket 412 only includes the front panel 424 and the mat 400 serves as the back panel. In these aspects, the bottom surface of the front panel 424 faces the top surface 410 of the mat 400 and the space between the front panel 424 and the mat 400 defines a pocket space after the front panel 424 is connected to the mat 400 along ends 418,420,422. The disclosure of the pocket 412 should not be considered limiting on the current disclosure as any type of pocket may be utilized with the mat 400.

In various aspects, the user 110 who wishes to hold or position certain items, such as material, near certain areas of the body may insert those items into the at least one pocket 412 through the pocket opening 432. For example, as shown in FIG. 4, in various aspects, the certain item includes personal items 434. In the present aspect, the personal items 434 are chakra material selected from the chakra material corresponding with the solar plexus 120; however, in various other aspects, the material may be any desired material. During use of the mat 400, the personal items 434 are positioned at least proximate to or even in contact with the body of the user 110. In various aspects, the personal items 434 are positioned proximate to or even in contact with the corresponding area 112,114,116,118,120,122,124 of the user 110.
